A Good, Sturdy, Natural-Fiber Mattress

Verified Purchase

I was a little nervous about ordering, sight unseen, something we'd be sleeping on; but we're very happy with the results at this early stage. This is a sturdy, well-constructed mattress, made in the US by the Cannon company. We'll let it air out a couple of days before we use it, as it has a strong raw-cotton odor, similar to drying hay (probably to be expected from any new item made of natural fibers). However, it smells fresh and natural; there are no chemical or off odors.
The cotton batting inside is dense and firm, and the cover fabric and seams are sturdy. I think this will serve us well for many years. (Our last all-cotton futon was twenty years old. We would be still sleeping on it had our upstair's neighbor's plumbing not overflowed through our bedroom ceiling, turning our old futon into a giant sponge.)
If you like a very firm sleeping surface constructed of natural fibers, as we do, an all-cotton futon is a good choice. It will pack down over the years, but if you turn it regularly and avoid spills, it should have a good long life. This particular futon looks very well-made and was extremely affordable. If it lasts as long as our last one, it will be a great investment.

It's always nice when a product is just what you're looking for and turns out to be as it was described. I read the reviews which surely enhanced the description. It is being used as the base for a 3" latex mattress pad and a layer of wool batting. This has been my effort to create a totally biodegradable mattress that is comfortable to sleep on. I'm very happy with the arrangement. I realize that it does smell of cotton vs. smelling of glue and poly foam of a brand new sears type mattress. After a week the cotton smell has nearly gone. In addition, I suspect that I may need a couple of line backers to toss it around for me as it settles in spots. I don't mind the extra effort it takes to be more conscientious. The powers that be gave us one planet to enjoy and care for and it's a joy.

This is a nice, sturdy, cotton futon mattress. It does have a lingering smell (which I presume will go away), but otherwise is a good product.....far better than what you see in stores.
Note that because this is cotton, it is quite heavy vs. comparable synthetic types.
I recommend this for someone looking for solid futon mattresses. Overstock continues to impress with their quality products and great customer service!

Because the cover fabric was some type of polyester and was described as cotton, I am not happy with this item. In addition, the description stated "very firm" and it was not. I am rating this as unfavorable. I was careful in choosing this mattress because the fabric is very important to me and it was stated as 100% cotton.

Thank you for your interest in the All Cotton Queen Size 8-inch Futon Mattress. There is neither foam nor filling in the mattress but super compressed layers of cotton until it forms a soft and yet supportive mattress. Hope that helped. Have a great day.

It's 100% cotton. That's why we bought it. Oddly, even though it's flattened to the thickness of a pancake, we still enjoy sleeping on it. It's so firm. It's a true Japanese style futon - no foam, no springs.

The 8-Inch all cotton mattress has multiple compressed layers of 100-Percent cotton which has a great firm feel. Comes in a Black Cotton blend futon cover. The cover is not removable. Can be stored in a closet when not in use.

"Hello. I'm wondering if you can confirm that boric acid is the only chemical flame retardant used in this mattress. For example, does it contain Antimony, or other flame retardants?
Thanks for you time!"

"I have a few questions regarding the product. I'd really appreciate if you can provide more details. Thank you.
1. What type of filling is in the Mattress? Is it 100% cotton fiber? Want to make sure that the filling is not made up of any cotton (scrap) fabric pieces.
2. How firm is the mattress? The product description says "extra-firm". Just want to be sure that the filling is tightly packed.
3. The picture shows stitching on the surface to avoid the cotton filling from moving around and forming lumps. Can you pls confirm."
